Since we don't make turkey, i make a roast chicken. Its delightfully simple, but almost everyone who has eaten it says, they have never had a better roast chicken: Here is my recipe:


Whole Chicken (4-6 Lb Chicken)
Salt/Pepper
Onion (halved)
Lemon (Halved)
Rosemary Bunch
Garlic Cloves (depending on how much garlic you like)

Preheat oven to 425

Place chicken in roasting pan

Cover with salt and pepper including the cavity

Stuff half onion, half lemon, rosemary bunch in cavity

Insert garlic cloves in cavity and between the skin and flesh of the chicken

Brush with olive oil

Put in oven for about 1.5 hours. Check for doneness.

2. Favorite?

Gratitude.

Say thanks to all you can, early, often, and not just one day a year.

Really consider how much you have to be thankful for.

Try to do one thing for which someone else will be truly grateful and remember long after you have forgotten doing it.

Smile and listen to music.

Share laughter.

That recipe will guarantee anything anybody serves for dinner will taste wonderful.
